UNDERMOUNT INSTALLATION
PREPARING THE AREA
NOTE:
Undermount sinks are mounted from below the counter. If you
are installing a topmount or "drop-in" sink, please see "topmount
installation" on page 9.
It is highly recommended that undermounting be performed by a
professional installer. Improper installation will void the warranty. Sink
template (1A) shows cut-lines for both undermount and topmount
installations. Review it carefully and follow the undermount cut-lines
only to install the sink under your counter.
- Remove the sink template (1A) from the box .
- Place the template (1A) on the desired counter space
surface . Keep in mind that the typical setback is
3 1/2 - 4 in . (89 mm - 102 mm) from the front of the counter
to the sink bowl (depending on the cabinet structure, the
counter overhang, the type of sink bowl, and the deck size).
- Make sure the template (1A) is parallel to the front of the
counter .

- Ensure that the template (1A) is placed so that the sink
will clear all objects and the mounting hardware can be
installed . Secure the template to the counter top using
masking tape .
- Place a support underneath the cut-out portion of the
counter to prevent it from falling during cutting . Use an
appropriate saw to cut along the undermount cutline .
- Drill the desired number of 1-3/8 in . (35mm) mounting holes
for your faucet and accessories in any of the 3 available
